Chapter 48: The Magic Coin and Protective Ring

Despite the high expenses, Sunan spared no cost in his quest for power.

After consuming the Super Potion, his meditation efficiency soared to astonishing levels.

Following a four-hour meditation session, the proficiency of the Star Ring Meditation skyrocketed by 514 points, and his mental power increased by 0.06.

This efficiency was over six times what it had been back in Blackstone City.

"Indeed, the synergy between the Super Potion and Blood Amber is remarkable," Sunan thought joyfully.

In addition to enhancing meditation, the effects of the Super Potion significantly accelerated his spell-learning progress.

In just one day, the learning progress for the spell **Magic Missile** exceeded 5%.

This meant that within a maximum of twenty days, he could master a new first-tier spell.

"High-level resources really are the key to rapid power enhancement," Sunan sighed with satisfaction, deciding to stay in the Silvermoon Viscount's estate for a while longer to prepare thoroughly before confronting the evil spirit in the estate.

During the following days, Sunan settled comfortably into the estate.

His daily routine involved meditation, learning spells, repairing magical items, and occasionally playing with Amy, petting the cat.

As for the Hidden Dragon, he had released it in Clockstone City to hunt for food in the nearby woods.

With the dual enhancement of the Super Potion and Blood Amber, the proficiency of the Star Ring Meditation climbed rapidly.

On the thirteenth day in the estate, Sunan successfully reached level 5 in the Star Ring Meditation.

He had constructed his fourth star ring.

[Sunan Yanest, Human Male, 17 Years Old]

[Mental Power: 17.34 / Physical: 13.77]

**Skills:**

- Star Ring Meditation Lv5 (35/30000)

- Potion Making Lv3 (727/6000)

- Biological Modification Lv2 (319/3000)

- Puppet Crafting Lv2 (1701/3000)

"Thirty thousand proficiency; I can max that out in less than two months."

The thought of soon constructing his fifth star ring filled Sunan with joy.

On the twentieth day in the estate, he successfully mastered **Magic Missile**.

This was his first attack-type first-tier spell.

**Magic Missile** created a projectile formed from highly condensed energy particles that shot from his palm. The number and power of the missiles depended on the caster's mental power and spell proficiency.

The spell was now fully mastered, as reflected in his panel.

With his mental power nearing 18, he could release up to three Magic Missiles simultaneously.

He tested it and found that a single Magic Missile could penetrate two centimeters of Blackstone Iron.

Even a heavily armored major knight would not take a hit well.

"Once my mental power increases further, being able to unleash dozens of Magic Missiles in a barrage will be terrifying!"

Amy's previous owner had left behind eight spell model books.

In addition to **Magic Missile**, they contained **Burning Hand**, **Magic Alarm**, **Weaken Ray**, **Comprehend Languages**, **Magic Disguise**, **Prismatic Light**, and **Feather Fall**.

Among these, only **Burning Hand**, **Weaken Ray**, and **Prismatic Light** were combat spells.

After some consideration, Sunan decided to learn **Weaken Ray** second.

Although Rune Gems had powerful effects, using one cost over ten gold coins.

A single battle could often consume gems worth fifty to sixty gold coins.

It was too expensive!

Sunan resolved to rely more on spells and energy particle manipulation for combat.

Only when facing particularly troublesome enemies would he resort to using Rune Gems.

Otherwise, no amount of gold could withstand such consumption.

"It's a pity that the Super Magic technique requires sufficient mental power to master; I can only train in it after becoming a level three witch apprentice. If I could master spell silent casting and spell instant casting, it would make casting spells during battles much easier."

On the twenty-fifth day in the estate, Sunan finally completed the repairs on two magical items.

Placing the repaired magical items into the Cube, the corresponding information quickly appeared.

**[Protective Ring (Alchemy / Minor Magical Item): Activating it creates an invisible protective force field around the body. Uses remaining: 3/3. Can restore usage by infusing mental power or automatically absorbing stray energy particles.]**

**[Magic Coin (Alchemy / Minor Magical Item): Activating it randomly summons a creature from another world, which will obey the user's commands. The creature will disappear after serving the user for half an hour or upon death.]**

The Protective Ring resembled an ordinary copper ring, unremarkable in appearance.

This suited the wizards' practical nature well.

They often preferred to make magical items inconspicuous so that enemies would not pay undue attention to them during battle, allowing for an element of surprise.

After testing, Sunan found that the protective force field generated by the ring had substantial defensive capabilities, comparable to a Shield spell.

However, unlike the Shield spell, which could only defend from one direction, the Protective Ring could cover all angles, providing 360-degree protection against attacks.

Counting the Protective Ring, Sunan now possessed two ring-type minor magical items.

The other, the Magic Coin, was a relatively rare summoning magical item, its effect similar to a first-tier Summon Monster spell.

However, the advantage was that the creature summoned with the Magic Coin was typically between the strength levels of a junior and peak major knight.

This made it significantly stronger than the first-tier Summon Monster spell.

In Sunan's view, the Magic Coin was already quite close to a Glimmer-level magical item.

Moreover, during the repair of these two magical items, Sunan's **Magical Item Crafting** skill had also reached 100%, allowing him to master this skill.

"Perfect, I previously acquired a book titled *Compendium of Low-Level Magical Items*. When I return to Blackstone City, I can try crafting magical items."

A powerful wizard must possess numerous magical items.

After all, even the most talented wizards couldn't be without weaknesses.

In areas where their combat system was lacking, they had to rely on magical items to compensate.

"Preparations are complete; next, it's time to deal with the evil spirit."

With the Magic Coin and Protective Ring, Sunan felt more confident about his upcoming mission.

When the Silvermoon Viscount received word from the steward that Sir Ang was ready to take action, he let out a huge sigh of relief.

Though the wizard had previously informed him that a thorough preparation period was necessary, seeing over twenty days pass without any sign of action had made him increasingly anxious.

With each passing day, the evil spirit in Kubero's estate grew stronger.

If delayed too long, it might become an irretrievable situation.

Fortunately, this wizard was finally ready to act!

The Silvermoon Viscount immediately ordered, "Gather the troops; we're heading to Kubero's estate!"
